Crossed Fingers - Breakdown of Sanity, Björn Krebs

Living day by day with remorse

But I try to push it to the back of my mind

My hands are shaking, I can’t resist no more, I can’t fight back

Brick by brick, step by step, stick by stick

Look at me, what have I become?

From time to time I feel like everything in me is dead

Do you know what it’s like to sleep forever

Endless thoughts, blinded by drugs, numb the pain, it never stops

I say it’s the last time

And cross my fingers behind my back (for myself)

No regrets for a long time

And all my habits, my habits will come back (will come back!)

Lift my glas to the end of the past

Back to the start because time runs too fast

Forcing myself to breathe

I see myself but it’s not really me

My enemy is me

Lie to myself, hope everyday again that I lose my selfproduced pain

I try to leave this cage inside and refuse to listen to the voice in my head

Got to lose my craving (for more!)

I need to get out of this

Forever bound, forever in chains

(Forever bound!)

I have to live forever with this shadow on my face

It was never gone and I guess it will never go away

I can’t decide which way to take to find my bliss

There’s no light I can follow, no god I can believe in

Please help me out of this

(What, what)

I take my last hit before I get sick

Please help me out of this

I say it’s the last time

And cross my fingers behind my back (for myself)

No regrets for a long time

And all my habits, my habits will come back (will come back!)

Tear me down and let me drown

Tomorrow (I promise) I’ll break up

But only tomorrow

I don’t want to chase the dark clouds anymore (anymore!)

Break free

I try to escape from this cage and turn the next page

I walked these cold streets all by myself, so the last steps I’ll cope under my

own steam

No dreams at night only daydreams (Oh!)

I tried to hide it from the ones I love but I can’t pretend anymore (anymore!)

I can’t hide anymore

Break, Break free
